Ha! I get it. Klipsch are like potato chips, can't just have one

Ah, yes. But which ones

Has anyone compared the RP-280F to the RF-7 II? Which speaker is technically better for "audiophile" sound quality? I ordered a pair of RP-160M from eBay this morning for fun, and to get the flavor of the new series of speakers. I could see getting the better tower speakers on everyone's recommendation. If it turns out to be the RF-7 II's, I'd like to order them before they become scarce and prices get out of control. Thanks!

Amplifier choice and toe in/out are critical to getting proper balance of sound from horn loaded speakers.

Hi Jim, That could be a lot of fun. Thank you for the offer. Yes, I am on Long Island. I am waiting to see what the CES show in Jan. has to offer, audio gear wise. I'd like to hear what Klipsch has to offer. I have you say that you guys, the Klipsch community, have been amazing in offering advice, help and camaraderie. I'd like to publicly thank everyone. Thank you so much. Joe

For Sale: Pair of RB-75 bookshelf speakers (cherry)
joeinid replied to Lpusedyou's topic in Garage Sale
bump, PM sent Thank you -
I am a little nervous about that, thanks!

I am not fluent in electronics. It's a wonderful sound and wonderful integrated amp. I absolutely love the KT-150's.

I am finding it impossible to find the holy grail RB-75's or even RB-5's (if anyone can recommend others that I should look for, please let me know). I'd even consider a pair of Palladium if you guys think very highly of them. I can't find place locally to hear the different speakers that I am interested in and have no problem ordering online. Can anyone tell me how you like the RP-160M's? Thanks! Joe

EL-34 are a little more lush, softer and rounder overall. Bass is a little more puffy in comparison. EL-34 are very musical. The KT-150 seem to combine the sweetness and musicality of the EL-34 with more extension top to bottom, more bass slam and detail without edginess. Definitely more air and 3D with the KT-150 and just a bigger and more open sound stage with clarity. I bias them at 500 mA and I think they are not even running hard. I expect to get almost double the life out of the KT-150 as compared to the other tubes. What's the difference in EL34 and KT150?

I had to post this. I bought a Jolida Fusion 3502 a while back. It came with EL34, which I love. I recently installed KT-150 in it and rebiased. Holy cow! For a $1600 amp and $400 in additional tubes, it sounds amazing. Absolutely one of the best low to mid level listening amps as well. Tremendous 3D, air and separation. Bass to die for in a tube amp. It's a killer deal.

Hi Tom, I started way back when with RB-5-II and more recently owned new Corwall III's for 2-3 years. I probably should have kept them, but hindsight is 20/20. I had an opportunity last year to get demo K-horns at a great price but since my main listening room does not have proper corners, I'd have to build false corners and that did not look like that was going to happen for me. I think I understand the Jubilee sound, I'd like to experience it in person sometime.

I keep talking myself in and out of Klipsch Jubilee speakers. I guess I really need to hear them to decide. I know they will be great, but I just need to get a feel for what they are and gauge their size in the room. I realize that I may have to travel some distance, if necessary, and am hoping I can get the flavor locally. Thanks!

Klipsch Jubilee newbie seeking help please ....
joeinid replied to joeinid's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Thank you jwc, I know that this may be "overkill" but I found this last night. I know it can be mostly automatic, but not sure if I need to plug in anymore than crossover numbers and let it do the rest. A friend is a dealer and I may be able to try it out before purchase. Even this on the 2 way Jubilee seems like it would kill other options. Any thoughts? http://deqx.com/product-hdp5-overview.php If you go the 3 way route model you quoted above, you will be on your own with EQ. There is no "not behind the screen settings" for this setup. I've asked more than once. You would have to RTA your setup. Then make your own adjustments. This can be time consuming. However, if you get it right.......hard to beat. jc -
